I have just bought a nice pair of Wilson Audio Sophia 2 from US (thanks Adriano in LA!).
As part of this my hifi system will be moved down from second floor to our relatively small living room at the first floor.
We live in an old wooden house in southern part of Norway. Our living room downstairs is approx. 4 meters deep and 7,5 meters wide. The room is divided in two by a 1,3 meter timberwall and a free standing oven on the speaker side. The listening area will be approx. 3,7 meters wide and 4 meters deep. The roof is approx. 2,1 meters high with timber bearings.
I am in process of buying some acoustic tools to get some more control of the room frequencies. I know I will have a bass boom at the left speaker corner. The right speaker will be mounted between the Finite Elemente rack and the oven. Since the oven is free standing (approx. 15 cm of the wall), I need to modify both bass resonances and flutter due to the concrete wall behind it. Behind the listening position the windows will be covered by curtains. Suggestions are welcome!
Next step in my process of the hifi world will be byuing a new turntable. It will be either a Basis 2200 w/Vector 4 arm or a TW Acustic Raven w/Graham II arm mounted on a wall shelf from Finite Elemente.
After that its amplifier time.. and a Burmester 011 and 911mk3..
Enclosed you will find some pictures of our living room. I will post a room scetch too.
